Re: [Air-l] archiving websites for later analysis
Thanks all for the helpful links. I'll be trying out some of the solutions and I'll let you know what I think of them. Chris wrote:
Internet Explorer 5 and above offers a number of ways to save sites, for purists who want all the HTML and code, and a Web Archive feature which will save a site and all its links to whatever link depth you specify.
I've looked into this, but I haven't been able to figure out how to set the necessary link depth in IE. I'm running IE6 on both Win2k and NT (and IE5 on 98) and when selecting the "Save As" function, I never encounter the possibility of saving anything else but the current displayed page. Selecting the 'archive' function only seems to save the current site in one file instead of normal HTML files... Anyone know if this setting is buried somewhere else, deep down?

I'm glad you mentioned that. I've been feeling kind of dim that I had never noticed this feature, given the amount of time it would have saved me. Looking forward to hearing more.

Not so deep in IE5: Add the page to Favorites. Open Organize Favorites. Select the page you wish to archive. Check "Make available offline" Open Properties -> Download, and make your choices: links deep, limit space, even -> Advanced: images, etc. In Properties -> Schedule you may, well of course, schedule. -- Robin On 03-10-2002 09:06, Frank Schaap wrote:

Robin, Many thanks. It only appears to go 3 links deep, but this will be extremely useful. Yours, dimly, Ben ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robin Cheesman" <robin@ruc.dk> To: <air-l@aoir.org> Sent: Thursday, October 03, 2002 8:23 AM Subject: Re: [Air-l] archiving websites for later analysis

In Netscape you can save the full page on you hard drive (code included) -- just in case you are interested: Open Netscape Composer Go to "open page" under file Cut and paste the URL Open the page ...then save it on your hard drive Molly Kerby Western Kentucky University Robin Cheesman wrote:

You can save each URL of the page rather simply and quickly. Then you can view the page off your hard drive (links will still be active of course) just as you would if you were accessing the page from the host. That way, if an owner changes hers/his site, you still have the old information, too. To retrieve or view the code intact, go to "edit" html source. I think that is what you are asking?
